I just may have give up.<br /> I don’t like current offerings at my usual go to brands, so I tried some new to me brands with terrible results - I couldn’t get the sizes right or they cuts were not working for me. Shopping in stores was not good either - they are full of current trendy items - everything double breasted, plaids, snakeskin, athletics stripes and earth tones. That is great for wardrobe refresh, but unfortunately I am still in wardrobe building phase and am looking for more classic essentials. Not a good season for that.<br /> I am even thinking of ordering one of those boxes were stylists pick couple of outfits for you - I am that desperate :)<br /> Fortunately weather is still mild but as soon as it gets colder I will not have anything to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060941 Sun, 15 Sep 2019 04:50:36 +0000 Anonymous 2060941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, try sizing up. My problem is with shoulder fit. Sizing up means more ease of movement. And possible layering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060938 Sun, 15 Sep 2019 04:21:34 +0000 Suz 2060938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I hope you can find one that fits well because it looks sensational on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060889 Sun, 15 Sep 2019 00:36:05 +0000 Anonymous 2060889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This happens to me ALL THE TIME with jackets. Arms are too tight, body is huge, shoulders too wide, hips too narrow, you name it, I experience it. &nbsp;I'd certainly try a size up , as this is a great jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060868 Sat, 14 Sep 2019 21:37:44 +0000 anchie 2060868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Want to add that I am so frustrated with my fall shopping - I need many things, I am down to 3 pairs of pants, but I am constantly ordering the wrong things - wrong size, wrong cut, wrong material. Went to brick and mortar stores 3 weekends in a row and returned empty handed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060866 Sat, 14 Sep 2019 21:23:12 +0000 anchie 2060866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can try a size up, but the problem is that jacket doesn’t feel proportionally tight everywhere. Body part could be a size too small but sleeves feel like 2 sizes too small, especially if I want to layer anything under it, i have a sleeveless top in the pictures. And 2 sizes I think will be too big in the body. But I could be wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060857 Sat, 14 Sep 2019 20:50:24 +0000 Carla 2060857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t know about elbows, but shoulders look like they need more room. One size up? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060831 Sat, 14 Sep 2019 18:28:07 +0000 Angie 2060831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. Try a size up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/worth-sizing-up#post-2060815 Sat, 14 Sep 2019 18:06:20 +0000 anchie 2060815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am really conflicted about this jacket and would appreciate another opinion.<br /> Apparently I have fat elbows because this is second jacket in a row that feels tightest around my elbows so that I can barely bend my arms. What do you think is it worth sizing up, would that resolve the issue or is this cut just wrong for me? Have you ever had this problem?<br /> Please ignore the styling, I would not wear it with shorts obviously. </p>
